FELTMAKING with the Fibre Sisters At the Ipswich Art Workshops d’Arcy Doyle Place Ipswich. Create a 3D Felt vessel 9am-12pm, 8 December 2024 Cost: $30 per person Felt making is a physical activity for all ages, a surprising process and a rewarding finale. The raw wool fibres are placed in layers with motives cut and placed providing a unique design on the background. It is then wetted, rolled and thrown as part of the making of felt. The completed project will take 3-6 hours and often soaks up the energy, good humour and creativity of the participants. ArtsConnect Ipswich will take bookings and payments. The Fibre Sisters are textile artisans and have made felt at Woodford Folk Festival, the Abbey and on the footpaths of Ipswich.
All materials will be provided. We bring
Wool batts, prefelts, templates,
feltmaking supplies, buckets, bubble wrap
Dorothy Walsh and Mieke den Otter are local artists and members of Spinners Weavers
